A week ago, me & my brother went to Detroit to see the Hip Hop 50 tour. It was Big Daddy Kane, Rakim, KRS-1, EPMD, Doug E. Fresh & Slick Rick.
We get downtown and it's completely packed. Apparently Ed Sheerhan is in town at Ford Field that night too. So I knew it was gonna be a ton of people out. While checking into the hotel, we found out that Kid Rock is also doing a show at Little Caesar's Arena. These 3 shows were with roughly 5 blocks of each other.
We walked up to the Fox Theatre for our show. And the scene was hilarious. We saw folks with MAGA hats and t-shirts showing bald eagles holding machine guns. And then groups of young women between 12-30. And then our show was black folks between 40-60. It was even wilder when they all let out at the same time and folks had some alcohol in them. But I didn't see any trouble pop off.
Apparently, Eminem showed up at Ed's show and did "Lose Yourself."
I gue$$ I under$tand why he would $how up and perform at an Ed $heerhan $how in$tead of appearing at a $how featuring $everal arti$t$ that in$pired him.
I assume our crowd would have been hyped for him to appear. But to be fair, I'm not from Detroit. I don't know how he would have been accepted by the crowd.
